I think I've hit a score that I won't beat for a while, though I've been working on making my weak spots less weak. Hit a new high of 840 in the scales game, the game gives you way less points per correct answer than the block counting game, so you really have to mash the answers to get a high score. The good part is you're less likely to fumble since there are only 6-7 possible answers max at once unlike in blocks where you might miscount and miss by 1. Scales probably scores you the 2nd lowest, next to signs math. (Ugh) Ironically jigsaw puzzle scores pretty high so I have a decent score even though that one gives me the most trouble every time.
Some tricks for playing scales with speed:
-If an item only shows up at the lower end of the scales, you can just pick it and ignore everything else. A lot of times these only show up once so if you see this it's really easy. If you see only 1 banana and it is at the lower end of 1 of the 4 scales, just ignore everything else and pick the banana since you can't prove that anything else is heavier than it.
-If the same item appears on both sides of the same scale, ignore that item for that particular scale.
-For some reason the heaviest item tends to appear the least number of times often. It's usually a good idea to look for these first, unless you see one at the up end of a scale.
-This is really for Big Brain Academy on the DS only, since I've never seen this situation on the Facebook app but I see it all the time in the DS game. If 2 items weigh equally, then neither of them is the -heaviest- item on the screen.

| I've been playing this game on Facebook non-stop. I think it gives your brain a good workout. (Even though the scoring is a bit unbalanced.)
I think everyone should play!
(Of course in today's ineptness-loving, avoid-thinking-at-all-costs, "I love being dumb as shit" society, stuff like this tend to get ignored immediately.) |

| I never really minded them before but lately I've been seeing some random gay jock ads. I think it's a ploy for me to pay for the blog.
WTF Xanga.
